Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "As Jack Groppel so aptly explains, the rigor of corporate athletics is often even more demanding than that of professional athletes. In my world, one does not have the luxury of an off-season. . . . This book is a must read for all those striving for the gold."-Arthur M. Blank, CEO and President, The Home Depot "Wow! This is an incredible book. Every person in business should read The Corporate Athlete from cover to cover and apply it every day."-Brian Tracy, author of Maximum Achievement: Strategies and Skills That Will Unlock Your Hidden Powers to Succeed Today's corporate world is much like the world of professional sports-it is fiercely competitive and mentally and physically demanding, and it requires constant, vigilant training. More than ever, to maintain health, happiness, and career success, executives and employees must become Corporate Athletes. In this book, top business consultant, trainer, and lecturer Jack Groppel shows you how to use the training mentality of elite professional athletes. Based on the latest scientific research, The Corporate Athlete shows corporate competitors how to achieve maximum performance levels-both inside and outside the corporate world. Drawing on the parallels between sports and business, Jack Groppel reveals the integral roles that nutrition, fitness, and self-improvement-mental, physical, and emotional-play in giving Corporate Athletes their winning edge. It's an edge that's crucial if you need to come to a meeting fresh off the plane, pull out all the stops on a big presentation, cut the major deals-and still have the energy to enjoy time with family and friends. This practical and beneficial 21-day program will give you, no matter how overworked you are, the stamina and commitment to develop a world-class career. Learn to: * Have as much energy for your family at 8 p.m. as you have at the office at 8 a.m. * Be on when you need to be on * Respond to change, adversity, and crisis more constructively * Display more positivity and confidence * Eat properly on the road, in the air, and before and during business meetings * Slow down the aging process Take advantage of the same secrets that Dr. Groppel has used to help high-stress professionals-from Olympic athletes and NHL stars to fast-lane executives at major companies like Morgan Stanley Dean Witter, Estée Lauder, and Bristol-Myers Squibb-get themselves in fighting shape. Here is the program that will train you to perform at the highest possible levels in both your professional and your family life-because taking optimum care of yourself, mentally and physically, is the best way to take care of business. "Outstanding . . . The Corporate Athlete is a truly comprehensive program to help you achieve both your personal and your professional goals. It will help you take control of your life and effect positive physical, mental, and spiritual change."-Darlene Hamrock, Regional Vice President, Clinique Why do so many top performers call themselves Corporate Athletes? "Today's challenging business climate requires every top executive to be perfectly fit both mentally and physically. The Corporate Athlete is must reading for everyone who wants to manage his or her business, career, or profession effectively while living a balanced life. Buy it-it's a great investment."-Leonard Lauder, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Estée Lauder Companies, Inc. "This is the book to teach you how to perform your job at the highest level possible while maintaining maximal health and happiness."-Jim Courier, French Open champion and former world No. 1 tennis player

Download or read book Triphasic Training written by Cal Dietz and published by Bye Dietz Sports Enterprise. This book was released on 2012-06 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is Triphasic Training? It is the pinnacle of sports performance training. Created by world renown coach, Cal Dietz, Triphasic Training breaks down dynamic, athletic movements into their three components (eccentric, isometric, and concentric), and maximizes performance gains by applying stress to the athlete in a way that allows for the continuous development of strength, speed, and power. Who uses Triphasic Training: Everyone! From elite level athletes to absolute beginners, the triphasic method of training allows for maximal performance gains in minimal time. For that reason professional athletes from all backgrounds seek out Coach Dietz each off-season to train with his triphasic system. Coach Dietz has worked with hundreds of athletes from the NFL, NHL, and MLB, as well as several dozen Olympic athletes in track and field, swimming, and hockey. What the book is about: Triphasic Training was originally a digital book with over 3,000 hyperlinks and 6 hours of video lectures, showing the reader exactly how to perform every exercise and apply the training methods. To ensure that you do not miss out on this valuable component, inside your book you will find a web link to a downloadable PDF that contains all of the hyperlinks and videos from the original digital book. The PDF is laid out to allow you to easily follow along as you read the book. Simply scroll in the PDF to the page that you are reading in the book and it will have every hyperlink and video that is on that page. The book contains over 350 pages, divided clearly into 2 parts: the “why” and the “what”. The first three sections go through the physiological basis for the Triphasic method, undulated block periodization, and general biological applications of stress. The authors will explain how to incorporate the Triphasic methods into existing programs, with complete descriptions on adapting it to virtually any scenario. Sections 4 through 7 are devoted entirely to programming, with over 3,000 exercises and 52 weeks of programs for numerous different sports. Included in the programming section are: Over 3,000 exercises, each hyperlinked to a video tutorial that shows you exactly how to perform the exercise. 5 separate 24-week training programs built for either 6 day, 5 day, 4 day, 3 day, or 2 day models. Over 6 hours of video lectures by Coach Dietz further explaining the Triphasic Training method. These lectures go even deeper into the physiology and application of what he does with his elite athletes. Over two dozen tables showing exactly when and how to modify exercises to ensure continuous improvement in your athletes. Peaking programs for football lineman or skill players, baseball, swimming, volleyball, and hockey players (among others). A complete 52 week training program for football.
Download or read book Building the Elite Athlete written by Peter Ross and published by . This book was released on 2019-11-27 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "I don't want to just compete, I want to win." Is there anything worse than devoting years of your life to a pursuit, and never getting the result you wanted? If you're a serious athlete, you train hard most days of the week - days when other people are out partying, watching TV, or hanging out doing other "relaxing" things. You have no interest in that, because you'd rather be training. The fact is though, we all need validation that our training, our effort, is working. It has to be worth it. No one wants to train for years and always come mid-pack when they compete. You want to be a contender, you want to be the one with a huge smile on your face at the end of the day because you made the podium. Sure, competing is its own reward, but results are even better. But how do you get there? How do you make that jump to the elite level? You could do what everyone else does - try a new coach, a new program, train more, train harder, go on a stricter diet. These methods are just tactics, and they're not effective, because most of the time they just end up with you burning out, getting sick or even worse, getting injured. Imagine what it would feel like if your next competition finished with you standing on the podium. All that effort, all that training, strict eating, discipline, it's all paid off. Instead of you wondering how the people at the top do it, now other people will be wondering that about you.What you probably don't realise is that people at the elite level are playing an entirely different game to you. While everyone else is focused on their diet and training program, they've had theirs in place a long time ago and don't even think about it anymore. They've moved on to pulling all the other levers that will bring far bigger performance improvements.I've competed at national level in two different sports, coached a world record holding powerlifter and also been an instructor in the army. I'm also fortunate enough to call former Olympians and national champions as my friends. I worked out what those levers were a long time ago, validated them against what others at the top were doing, and perfected them. I'll show you how to do it too... How to go into a competition knowing you've had the ultimate preparation. How elite performers organise their life to ensure they're always in top condition to train. How to structure your training so you continuously improve, without burning out. How to manage your weight to stay in your weight class. How to safely cut weight and refeed before competition. How to not choke. How to bring it all together on the day. You'll find all of this and much more in Building the Elite Athlete. 30 years' worth of knowledge in competition, training, nutrition, psychology, recovery and more presented in a way to maximise your performance without just training harder. It's easy and accessible to read with no filler. The next time you compete, you'll do it knowing that you've left no stone unturned.
